Please don't try to teach James anything about routing. If James says 
600kpps and cisco says 1Mpps, James has the correct number. :)

7206 are highly reliable and proven in a small non-ddos environment. 7206 
(non-NPE-G1) is basically a PC-architecture router, all-software. NPE-G1 
is hardware accelerated, but it maxes out at 600-700kpps under ddos 
(random src/dst).
